Super recommended. - The visit is very nice. The girl explains everything in French and English at once. It was a very hot day but they managed to keep us in the shade at all times. The process explains it very well and is seen on the ground. The essences of the store are very good and economical. Recommended experience. For the girl they also had several details.

Great stop for learning and fun! - Learning and experiencing with Lucile was a highlight of our trip! She was friendly, knowledgeable, welcoming and helpful. Lucile handled a duel language group with ease and professionalism. She answered all of our questions and was a complete delight! Highly recommend this tour (with Lucile, of course! 😜)

Excellent intro to distillation - Loved everything about this experience. Tour was informative and fun. Products high quality and reasonably priced. Tour and sachet for under 9 euro is a bargain. They let you walk around fields at your leisure. Workers knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.

Small but extremely effective - It seems small but it is very well explained.
Arrived at the opening but first visit at 10:30 a.m. The wait was worth it. Clear and useful explanation. Pleasant guide, even losing time for the systematic translation into English.

a pleasant visit - Nice visit on a small family farm with a really nice Guide giving bcp information on the cultivation of lavender, immortal and rosemary of the estate.
Unfortunately, the lavender fields are at the end of flowering (18/07) and the crops are not as beautiful as in the photos (darker colors). Besides, the fields were smaller than we thought.
On the other hand, we are here on a culture and production of essential oil made as before and "by hand"; this explains the smaller areas respecting nature.

A beautiful journey of the 5 (or 6 😉) senses - When you do not see the time pass and you are captivated you can that it was a beautiful experience 😊
Our Guide animated this visit wonderfully well, without giving up his smile and with a nice relationship to the people present. Information inputs have been "essential" for me who grows permaculture and uses medicinal plants daily and aromatherapy
Big thank you 🙏
